Hello fine folks, trust everyone is doing well. I am a 50yo male out of Australia. What first put peptides on my radar was looking for something to heal with: my right hip was mildly arthritic, the legacy of my Aussie Rules days and a fai that later turned arthritic — though the other theory is that covid or the vaccine (only kidding) did it, and it was definitely covid or the vaccine (only kidding!). I kicked off with bpc-157, mixing the 10g with 2.1ml bac and dosing 0.07ml per day. Nothing bad happened, no side effects worth flagging, so a second round followed the same recipe. One clear difference: the tendon soreness that used to follow a workout simply stopped, no middle aged pullup syndrome. Where it fell short was the hip — not much help there — though I was running a fairly low dose. Then my usual reverse lent rolled around, a month of hot cross buns and chocolate before easter, and I was facing like 10lbs+ to shift, so I got reta. Reta has rewritten things for me: 4 weeks in, the scale shows over 10lbs gone, with no real strength drop (a smidge at most). The opening dose was 2mg of reta, given 1x per week, and looking back that was maybe a bit high. A few problems did show up — spicy food became intolerable and my stomach felt off generally — but I'd still call it worth it. The plan had been 2mg, 2mg, 4mg, 4mg etc, only it does its job so well that I have settled somewhere between 2-3mg per week and intend to stay there. By the tail end of the week that dose feels like it has faded. The tradeoff suits me: dosing on Snday or Monday leaves room for a decent weekend meal (a cheat meal, say) without wrecking my stomach. With things going fairly well, KLOW has now entered the picture, since I like the antiinflam idea for the hip. Only 3 doses of KLOW so far - the mix is 80mg into 3ml bac, with a 1ml dose taken daily - but the pain in my hip does seem reduced. Chuffed enough to keep going. There is obviously a bit of worry about research grade vs medical grade... though perhaps together we can work some of that out. Once the bottle of KLOW is finished I'll take a week or two away from it. Microdosing HGH during the KLOW breaks is a maybe, and the melanotan I have sitting there is still undecided. I pin myself, no problem with that, and a pen is not for me.
